Well, I am sure you have seen my updates, pre and post games and what has been going on through various interviews.

Personally, I think the season has been a success so far. There is no doubt that there have been obstacles in my way this year with losing key players for certain games and this is something I will have to evaluate at the end of the season. We always try to black dates out so we do not cross over dates when our national team players go out to play but some things have been out of my control.

However, there is still lots of work to do and lots of preparation to do for Thursday's CONCACAF Champions League game against Metapan. I want us to finish as the highest points achieved from the Caribbean.

And, then, onto our playoff. We need your support next Sunday at 6:00 p.m.
I have reached out to you, the supporters, to fill the stadium as it is a long off season with no soccer and we want to extend our season. Your support is very valuable and the players seem to respond when the stadium is full.

So, if we all post on our Facebook pages the time, venue and what it means to the players, how great an occasion it will be, let's see how many people we can get there. It will be almost like a chain letter or chinese whisper.

Saturday night's game was dedicated to Susan G Komen's Race for the Cure (Chris Nurse's project). Thank you so much for all your support. As a provisional date, October 16th, we are planning to hold an event at Coaches Restaraunt in Hato Rey together with our end of season player awards. Everybody is welcome to support Fundacion Hogar Ninito Jesus and Susan G. Komen Foundation plus a chance to interact with all the players.
 
Take care and I will see you all next Thursday and Sunday!! 

VAMOS ISLANDERS!!
